…included for stereo cameras designed with partners, plus lidars, ultrasonic sensors, and inertial measurement units (IMUs). The sensor suite balances performance, price, and reliability for industrial applications, said NVIDIA. All sensors are calibrated and time-synchronized, and they come with drivers for reliable data capture. These sensors allow AMRs to detect objects and obstacles across a wide range of situations while also enabling simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM). NVIDIA builds platform for OEMs, industries NVIDIA said it offers extensive software support for Nova Orin in addition to the hardware and integration tools. The base operating system includes drivers and firmware, as…

…based on sensor technologies such as radar, laser/lidar, camera, ultrasonic, DSRC [dedicated short-range communications] and GPS.” Software such as Simcenter Prescan allows automakers to train their artificial intelligence programs to make the right decision not only in routine events but also in uncommon but imminent events. For example, how would the autonomous pilot react to an elephant crossing the road, or a group of trick-or-treaters dressed up as pumpkins?

…the different types of required ADAS sensors, including radars, ultrasonic, cameras and lidar,” says Castany. “These sensors are required, considering the different levels of vehicle autonomy, while we move forward to the high and full automation levels. As AVs are integrating more and different types of sensors, electrification is a key and challenging topic. Electrification comes with an increased presence of electronics, with higher voltages systems, which without a proper design can generate electromagnetic interferences [EMI]. This can cause big issues for the safe operation of the vehicle, which test car manufacturers’ and suppliers’ need to pass before being able…
